Beautiful, ribbed nutmeg, initially light green, then fully ripe ocher.
Kikuza is a true gem among the moskat. It changes color from light green to terracotta and is extremely interesting in each of these color levels. The fruits weigh around 1-2 kg and are excellent in the kitchen.
Unfortunately, Kikuza requires some warmth and has to be pre-cultivated in Central Europe.
Ripening time: 125 days.

The planting distance for pumpkins depends on the vining behavior.
